Tampa local Jason Skeldon does vibrant pop art with urban art, stencil art, street art, and fine art fusions. Even some with collage and fabric. Always fun, bright and provocative!

Local Tampa artist legend, Jason Skeldon produces fun, bright, pop art. Prints, originals and commission work - it’s been fun to watch his technique and style progress since I bought my first piece in 2013. Now I have 25 or so of his pieces all over work. People love them. Bright. Provocative. Fun. Local.

Fin Dav is one of my favorite urban, modern artists. Uses techniques from both his fine art background and spray paint, stencil, gold leaf and others - usually depicting characters with an Asian flair. In this first box set, he imaginations his style of art from a bunch of well-known modern artists. Some of these stand out more than others for me. I will likely frame three or four of them as they really add a pop-up color and draw the eye to blank walls and spaces. Can you guess the other artists? Which one(s) are your favorites?

One of my favorite Dolk pieces. The Norwegian urban artist was popular and then his style completely shifted. I miss his old works like this “Fire Chief”, with the double entendre and perfect execution.

I don’t see a lot of (art) posted on Mantel yet… But I’ll keep trying! Without getting too political, I feel like this is a great representation of where we are as a society. This beautiful, but simple, origami dove with his tail on fire is so simple yet symbolic. I love how the artist (Opie) used live flame, a technique called fumage, to better capture the smoke rising from the tail of this dove.
